Dental Implants and Osteoporosis - A Clinical Update
Mohammad Faisal, Munna Khan
Abstract: Osteoporosis is a metabolic bone disease that makes bones more fragile and increases the risk of breaking them. Osteoporosis is assumed to be an osseointegration risk because it is linked to a reduction in bone formation, which is thought to hinder the body's natural ability to heal and prevent proper bone apposition at the implant site. Osteoporosis can affect dental implant placement as osteoporotic individuals have greater alveolar ridge resorption, altered trabecular patterns mostly in the anterior maxilla and posterior mandible. The present review gives an insight into the current concepts on implant placement and suggested treatment modifications in osteoporotic patients
